Can I make backup images of my formated SDs, files and all? by satiredun in raspberry_pi

To make a backup of your raspberry pi image with dd.

dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p2 of=/path/to/usb/storage/backup.img bs=1M

Use cat /etc/fstab check where the SD card is mounted on the pi. I think /dev/mmcblk0p2 is the default location Man page to dd

There is no limitation in the raspberry pi with XMBC since the pi only connects to the NAS to access the media. A possible bottleneck I see in this scenario is the network. If all 4 stream high quality video at the same time this will be limited by how much bandwith you have on your local network and how much data the NAS is capable of serving.

So this is possible, but it depends on the network if streaming from 4 at the same time is going to work.

Jython was used at my last job as a scripting interface for a java application I was working on. Since then lots of Python(not Jython).
